Lawyer Kane,

There was fun enough and to spare
in the Chicago Court House the other
day, the person furnishing it being =
Miss Kate Kane, a woman lawyer, to
whom notoriety seems to have some
value. As the jurors were leaving the
room where the "boodle" cases were on
trial Tuesday Miss Kane, approached
George Bell, a Tribune reporter, and
wanted to know how much he was paid
for scandalizing her. In his report of
the proceedings he had alluded to the
fact that, while Miss Kane had been
very conspicuous during the anarchist
trial., she had been compelled during the
present proceedings to keep in the back
ground with others not connected with
the case. Miss Kane. in a loud tone
and with blood in her eye; called tho
reporter . '.dirty, mean, contemplate
whelp," and was evidently about to at
tack him, when Judge Jameson sharply
rebuked. her, and told her that such
language was not allowed in court.
The furious lawyer in petticoats apollo
gized to his Honor, but declared that
she would not submit to being scandal
lied by such low, contemplate thing
as ''that" and she shook her clenched
fist in the face of. Mr.. Bell. She also
said that she would attack Mr.. Bell after
he left the court room, but she subse-
qnently changed her mind, perhaps be-
cause Mr.. Bell is six feet one and is ono
of the best boxers in Chicago.

From DR.. Eggleston's illustrrted ar
ticle in the Century, we quote the fol-
lowing account of the weekday lec-
ture," now passed away: 1.-The New
England reverence for the Sabbath
tended to repress social enjoyment in
the accident al encounters Of Sunday,
but the Weekday lecture suffered from
no such restriction, and was for long
time much more in favor than even
the Sunday service. From all the
country round, in spite of the poverty
and difficult conditions of pioneer life,
people flocked to these weekday as
semblages. Cotton's lecture in Boston
was SO attractive that it was found con-
venient to establish a market on the
same day; punishments in the stocks,
in the pillory, at the whipping-post, or
on the gallows, were generally set
down for lecture-time, perhaps in order
that as large a number Of people as
possible might be edited by the sight
of a sinner brought to just retribu-
ton. Nor did these exhibitions Of
fogging, of cutting off ears, and of men
sitting in the stocks, or dangling from
the gallows, tend to diminish the at
tendance. At one period during
Philips war, scarcely Boston lecture
day passed for number of weeks
without the congregation being RECALLED
with the sight of the execution of one
or more Indians. When heretical or
seditious books were condemned, it was
decreed that they should be solemnly
burned Just after lecture Elections
were appointed for the same time at
first, and the early popularity of the
Thursday lectures in Boston and Ips-
wich fixed the annual Thanksgiving
festival on that day of the week. The
largeness of the assemblies at lecture
time gave some uneasiness to the mag
istrates in the first years Of the colony;
they were concerned to see people who
could i'll spare the time, going to three
or four lectures in different places
during the same week. They saw that
young people made attendance
on lectures a pretext for enjoying
themselves, and they had reasonable
fear that the hospitality exercised on
such occasions mi CHIT become burden
some. As early rs 1888 the magistrate
interfered to fix the hour Of the lecture
at one o'clock or later, that the people
might take their midday meal at home.
The next year they persuaded the min
listers about Boston to arrange their
lectures in alternate weeks, that four
contiguous towns might afford but two
lectures week. In 1889 the rulers
again sought to regulate the hour of
lecture, but this brought the clergy on
their backs, and the next year all re-
strictions were repealed, and the week
day lecture long remained time of
common assemblage, of business con-
venience, of hospitality, and of great
social enjoyment.

future we shall be relieved from this

GOPHER SHOOTING.

ers Engage In
The first prosecution in this county
under the game law was in progress be-
fore Justice Brooke Thursday and Fri
day. The complaint was made by Frank
Doty, who lives two miles south of this
city. Geo. Stuart and Fred Morson were
the defendants. Attorney O'Brien ap-
peared for Stuart and Morson and At
torney Wishart for the territory, the lat
ter by request of District Attorney Nor
gan, who was engaged before the county
board. The complaint charged Stuart
and Morson with having prairie chick
ems in their possession. Rev. j. A. Mar
ME was the principal witness for the ter.
| ritory. He testified that he heard eight
or ten shots fired near Doty's grove, in
| which grove Mr.. Marine lives. Going
to the edge of the woods he saw Stuart
and Morson in the field with guns, and
in a few moments a coyey of chickens
arose out of the grass. Stuart shot two
of the birds and Morson killed n The
''sportsmen" then got into the buggy
and drove away with two other men.
Witness "marked down. the dead birds,
and returning for his dog found n OF
the chickens, which was exhibited in
court.
By other witnesses it was shown that
the party hired a rig at a livery stables
that they had guns and that feathers
were found in the buggy when they re-
turned. Witness tanning testified tc
having seen them shoot chickens neal
the Kelley farm.
The defense was quite the other way

were simply shooting gophers only

ter defense.) The court reserved its de
cision until yesterday morning, wher
a verdict was given against Stuart fol
